This is my plan for the summer. First dig a deep hole. Then cut out the bottom of a large black storage container. In the bottom of the hole place down a layer of wet perlite. Over the perlite, place a fine mess screen down. Next push down the black container over the screen. This should prevent bugs from entering through the bottom. Put down a layer of compost/wheat straw. Then a layer of rye spawn. And another layer of compost/wheat straw. cover and let colonize. After colonization, case with 50/50 peat moss/verm with a dash of lime. at this point you could cut a square in the storage container lid and duct tape plex-E glass over the hole. the container should be ground level to increase security. a few leaves and weeds thrown on top of the container wouldn't hurt. i believe this should work great. any questions or comments?

alright. checkout Moe's outdoor tek. he's a dude with a mission. he's got his shit down straight. you really don't need that perlite/screen combo. instead, just water adequately and cover with a black trashbag or the like for humidification. i'm using a cement mixing bin from home depot. its 2x4ft in area and a foot deep. should workout well. i'm putting holes in the bottom, a layer of peat and lime, then a layer of composted manure/wormcastings to spawn into, then a top dressing of peat and lime as a casings. outdoors you really don't have to be as technicaL I've found. i've never done it outdoors, but i've read enough to know that you don't need much but Moe's tek. he's really got shit figured out. just checkout his section in the grow faq's.
